You think UVA isn’t wasting tons of money that could be earmarked for academics on their sports teams? This is a national sickness.

More evidence that we are hurtling toward our crumbling empire’s peak “bread and circuses” phase.

Japan has a wrestling camp for kids where at the end they have a show match in front of their parents to show off what they learned.

Thought you'd enjoy this.

Then may even more shame and disgrace be heaped upon him.

This is getting at one of the fundamental problems of US politics (among other fields): you have to be a psychopath to want to expose yourself to all that bullshit.

I don’t think anyone genuinely interested in the discovery of truth through reason could watch any of Kirk’s “debates” and believe that he was an open-minded participant willing to challenge his own beliefs.

Broadly, Rove is right, but notice how he ignores the obvious evidence of Kirk’s attempts to silence his critics (the snitch-lists for professors) or his claim that Kirk was driven by reason and logic when his main tactic was to ambush naive college students with debater’s tricks for viral clips.

If you think language and its interpretation are “very straightforward,” then you share more in common with your political adversaries than you know. Have a nice day.

Look, if Hayes can interpret it that way, and I, who loathe these liars with every fiber of my being, then it might not be as clear as you think it is.

“This kid…as anything other than one of them.” It can easily be seen to imply that it is an established fact that this kid is one of them and they are desperately trying to change that narrative.

“As anything other than one of them” could seem to imply that he is definitely “one of them.” That is the opening that phrasing allows.

… When put next to all the untrue speculations put forth by conservative media and the FBI…it’s enough to make a fairminded, rational person’s head explode.
September 18, 2025 at 3:18 PM
Yes. Poorly worded and open to an unfair interpretation, but saying that conservatives were desperate to distance themselves from a shooter raised in a strongly conservative household in one of our most conservative states is undeniably true….

Not your bad. Anyone remotely familiar with your work, or possessing common sense, would have refrained from the cheap one-upmanship of “correcting” your post. This lack of interpretive charity, especially among people who are ostensibly politically aligned, is all too common on social media, alas.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the role you’ve played in enabling and emboldening these people, Jake!

No, but I can recite multiple works by England’s greatest one-armed poet.

Thank you for reminding me of this Steve Martin deep cut.

Picture’s ok, but the sound mix is terrible. One of the commentators is really loud and the other I can barely hear.

Glad to know all it takes to radicalize a rich, middle-aged white man is to make him miss a few games of a tennis match. Wait until he hears about the innocent people being sent to foreign gulags.

“When it really mattered” was before he agreed to be Trump’s running mate, when everyone knew he was a racist scumbag who sexually assaulted woman and was willing to spread hate and lies to attain power. Pence ignored all that so he could have power and nothing he has done since erases those facts.
